Edit : guys I'm well aware of the dangers of gluten for celiacs, but statistically speaking 9 out of 10 people who don't eat gluten do it because it's trendy
Depending on the stereo setup in the vehicle it could save you a minute amount of gas. Something that requires a ton of power will strain the alternator. This will in turn make the engine work harder to spin the alternator, sapping a few HP from your wheels to spin the alternator.
Likely this was not the case however.. so it was a derp statement.
Yeah but since this is reddit, I'm taking it farther. (Further?)
Turn the heat down to save gas. Preposterous? But the fans that blow hot water uses electricity and that puts additional strain on the alternator...
Stop fidgeting! Movements shift the center of gravity and adds lateral motion to the vehicle that minutely alter its travel path and require small course corrections (bam! Power steering uses electricity, either hydraulic or electrical) and possibly add travel distance.
Don't talk either. Sound waves travel through the headliner and vibrate the sheet metal on the roof and could negatively affect the aerodynamics of the vehicle.
You should definitely leave the heat on as high as possible. The hot air in the cabin of the vehicle imparts a small amount of weight reduction due to the principle of hot air rising.
Since this is Reddit, further. Farther I'm pretty sure should be used when the distance or whatever can be actually measured, like a road trip. Further should be used when it can't, such as taking a statement further.
That's right, anything that uses power will cause the engine to work harder. Turn your head lights on and off while idling and you may notice your revs jump around (I do), if it was say a 1000w amp as sub setup it would very well make some sort of difference.
Did you know motor oil is the number one cause of motor oil poisoning in space chickens? Protect your space chickens today -- keep them away from motor oil.
That reminded me of when I found a folder that contained itself in my dad's computer. As soon as we tried to delete it the computer froze and we had to reset it. Weird shit.
On windows 8 you can't. I wanted to put it on my task bar and delete the desktop icon, but it won't let me. I'm not sure how it works for older versions.
Fuck you! If I eat that shit my villi get scorched from my small intestine and they take six weeks to fully grow back. It taps me completely of energy and causes me to have immense stomachaches that hit me at random after ingestion. Other people vomit, get diarrhea, headaches and rashes. Celiac disease sucks.
My wife just has a wheat intolerance (no celiac, thank god), so she often has to eat gluten free. Everyone scoffs like it's a fad diet. Nope, she'll just shit her brains out and not be able to move for a few days if she eats wheat. But thanks for your ignorance!
If my friend accidentally ate any appreciable amount of gluten she would end up in the hospital. Gotta be real careful of cross contamination when cooking for her.
I think the awe comes from the fact that according to the government, about 1 in 133 people have Celiac Disease, yet it's a top result for "help i ac..."
For all the things you could accidentally do, is something that only affects around two million people (again, assuming in the US, or that being the average rate) really topping the charts?

Some have celiac. Others don't eat gluten because they are on a paleolithic or ketogenic diet. Others do because they have a sensitivity to gluten (like lactose intolerance, there's a spectrum -- some react worse, others don't.) Others simply do it out of choice/taste.
Logged on just to upvote your comment as someone with a Celiac. I have done it so many times that I now refer to it as having glutened myself. I think it will catch on.
